Steven David Roling was born March 3, 1970, in Maquoketa, Iowa, the son of Delbert and Priscilla (Banowetz) Roling. He graduated from Central Community Schools in DeWitt, class of 1988. He was married to Donna Schlarmann in 1992. The couple resided in Delmar, where they raised four children. He worked for International Paper in Clinton and Pacific Coast Feather in Maquoketa.
Steve enjoyed listening to country music and going to see local country bands. He was quite a gardener, and loved being outside. He did a lot of farm work and enjoyed all things farming. Steve planted over 1000 trees in his lifetime. His greatest loves were his kids and grandbabies. He enjoyed spending time with all of them, watching the Chicago Bears together, and giving his grandkids rides on the tractor and 4-wheeler.
